MySQL client install fails because of glibc

My install of the MySQL fails because of dependencies but the missing package is installed. Do I really all these glibc versions?

user@SRC-DEV-VAS123:~/soft> rpm -ivh MySQL-client-community-5.0.45-0.sles10.x86_64.rpm

Have you checked Yast to install MySQL? It should be included there as well, and Yast takes care of the dependencies.

Yes, I tried that, see https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/23015756/How-to-install-MySQL-5-0-18-on-SuSE-Linux-Enterprise-Edition-10-0.html

rindi

I don't use SuSE, but it surprises me that Server isn't in the repositories. Are you sure about that? Do you have all the reps in the list?

ASKER

No, I have only one repository in the list, only this repository http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-source/

Should I add more?

rindi

Are you using opensuse or the official Suse version? In the Link you posted earlier I'd have thought it was enterprise suse, but your repository above seems to point to opensuse. I'm sure that for enterprise Suse you should have the full MySQL with server included. It may not be the newest version, but that is normal.

I'm using the enterprise version distributed as VMWare image http://download.novell.com/Download?buildid=tAXE3xLpiCE~

Can I use the repository of this distribution? Where is it located?

I was using the wrong rpm, I needed i586 not x86_64

rpm -ivh MySQL-client-community-5.0.45-0.sles10.i586.rpm
rpm -ivh MySQL-client-community-5.0.45-0.sles10.i586.rpm
